The race was the fourth edition of the Paris Grand Prix and was held over 50 laps of the Autodrome de Linas-Montlhéry. It was won by Georges Grignard, by a margin of four laps over Louis Gérard, in a race rife with unreliability. Sixteen drivers entered the event, only eleven started and just three finished. The previous two winners of the event, Henri Louveau and Yves Giraud-Cabantous, received entries to the race but failed to show up. The grid of eleven cars was decided by a random draw. Raymond Sommer took the lead at the beginning of the race, with Louis Rosier and Grignard in pursuit. However, both Sommer and Rosier retired, leaving Grignard to win by a clear margin over Gérard and Marc Versini, who competed in pre-war Delages.
